Today's fun fact - hospitality staff think about committing homicide 28% more during Christmas time.

And just about the best at it too. His hosting of "Never Mind the Buzzcocks" S24 E12 was one of the great performances I have seen. Just watch the first 5 min and see his deservedly famous introduction of Michelle Williams from Destiny's Child.

I downloaded this ep ages ago, have watched numerous times. Is brilliant.

Take a look at his previous version as well, they seem to be the only two he did

Anyone that gives half a shit about cricket, go easy on me. I am so ridiculously sore from cricket yesterday. Having only recently finished high school, I think the most overs I've bowled in a day before was 15. 21 overs yesterday, after 3 months of doing nothing has absolutely killed me.

LOL I feel your pain.... But at your age I'd have thought you wouldn't be too bad.

Who do you play for ??

 

[Noobz0r]

I hate seeing someone like Chris Lynn slogging in T20. Middle of the Ashes and one of the next generation of batsmen is playing shit and giggle cricket.

How did you feel about our Test opener playing last night?

Lol. I would love to see the unedited version of his shows.

Pulteney Old Scholars. I probably would be playing for Adelaide CC, but I had exams and what not so couldn't really be bothered with pre-season. Yeah, I think if I'd played in the first couple of rounds of the season 21 overs would be a piece of cake, but since it was my first game of the season I haven't come out of it too well.

Ah cool... Played against Ash, and the boys a fair bit.

Unlucky, 2nd days always the worst so more pain to come.

Where do you play??

Played a bit for Northern Districts and Adelaide High Old Scholars.... But mainly hard wicket these days at Salisbury West (retired a year ago but decided to have another hit).

4/52 was very rewarding though.
Had to boast a little bit somewhere.

I always found getting really drunk after a long spell was best way to negotiate the pain. If you're to hungover to move you can't feel the pain.

I think some of the too soon humour (some of which is funny) is often racist in nature, plenty of Boyles stuff crosses that line IMO. But I am often wrong

Btw the only acceptable racism is against the filthy Saxons

A wise man once said to me:

Racism is funny, Racists are not.

South Africa are 6 for 420 need 38 to win off 7 overs against India. They were 4-400 with 12 overs to go and looked like they would set a new world record beating the 7-418 the windies scored against Oz in Antigua in 2003 in the 4th and final test with the series over.

But de Viliers getting put for 103 and Duminy a couple of overs later means the game will probably be a draw.

du Plessis like in Adelaide 12 months ago has batted and batted for over 6 hours for 125 not out.

In Adelaide 2nd test last year we set the Yarpies 430 to win, but they blocked out 148 overs ( after being 4-45) to hang on for a draw 8-248 then won the next test at the WACA and the series. du Plessis was brilliant on debut. 78 in the first dig then 110 not out faced 376 balls in 7 3/4 hours batting.

 

[noffle]

What the hell are you doing South Africa? You have the chance of making history, at one of the all time great chases, and you're blocking out the last three overs?

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Classic test cricket, you don't want to lose when you have fought so hard, so you stop pushing hard to win.

 

[noffle]

To draw when they needed 16 off of 18 with 3 wickets in hand is as good as a loss for mine. It would have been very difficult for India to win in that position.
